Nixon and Watergate —
an American tragedy
From an acclaimed British author, a sharply focused,
riveting account — told from inside the White House — of
the crucial days, hours, and moments when the Watergate
conspiracy consumed, and ultimately toppled, a president.
In January 1973, Richard Nixon had just been inaugurated after
winning re-election in a historic landslide. But by April 1973 his
presidency had fallen apart as the Watergate scandal metastasised
into what White House counsel John Dean called a full-blown
cancer. King Richard is the intimate, utterly absorbing narrative
of the tension-packed hundred days when the Watergate burglars
and their handlers in the administration turned on one another,
revealing their direct connection to the White House.
Drawing on thousands of hours of newly released taped
recordings, Michael Dobbs takes us into the very heart of the

Death. Sex. Money. Tricky subjects we’re taught to avoid in
polite conversation. Here, the host of a hit podcast reveals
how to talk about difficult things, and why it might be the
most important thing we do.
In Let’s Talk About Hard Things, Sale takes her quest for more

reflects on race, wealth, inequality, love, grief, death, power —
all the things that shape our daily lives, the things we should be

Through the personal stories of people whose lives have

Raphaela Edelbauer The Liquid Land
Translated by Jen Calleja
A town that doesn’t want to be found. A countess who rules
over the memories of an entire community. A hole in the
earth that threatens to drag them all into its depths.
When her parents die in a car accident, highly talented Austrian
physicist Ruth Schwarz is confronted with a problem. Her parents’
will calls for them to be buried in their childhood home — but for
strangers, the village of Gross-Einland remains stubbornly hidden
from view.
When Ruth finally finds her way there, she makes a disturbing
discovery: beneath the town lies a vast cavern that exerts a strange
control over the lives of the villagers. There are hidden clues about
the hole everywhere, but nobody wants to talk about it — not
even when it becomes clear that the stability of the entire town
is in jeopardy.

such as the killing of Osama Bin Laden, the rescuing of Captain

Claire Dunn Rewilding the Urban Soul
searching for the wild in the city
How can we become more in tune with nature, even in the
heart of the city?
Once upon a time, a burnt-out Claire Dunn spent a year living

possibilities of human connection drew her back to the city,
where she soon found herself as overscheduled, addicted to her
phone, and lost in IKEA as the rest of us. Given all the city offers
— comfort, convenience, community, and opportunity — she
wants to stay. But to do so, she’ll have to learn how to rewild her
own urban soul.
Claire swims in city rivers, forages in the suburbs, and

Judy Novak waits. And worries. She can’t ignore the island’s

body is discovered, Judy’s worst fears are confirmed. Only, Paulina
didn’t kill herself. She was murdered.
So begins a thorny investigation, wherein every man on the

Translated by Elena Pala and Italy
A wry, filthy, and unputdownable look at class and national

Alberto Prunetti arrives in the UK, the twenty-something-year-
old son of a Tuscan factory worker who has never left home before.
With only broken English, his wits, and an obsession with the
work of George Orwell to guide him, he sets about looking for a
job and navigating his new home.
In between slaving in pizzerias and cleaning toilets up
and down the country, he finds his place among the British
precariat. His comrades form a polyglot underclass, among
them an ex-addict cook, a cleaner in love with opera, an elderly
Shakespearean actor, Turks impersonating Neapolitans to serve
pizzas, and a cast of petty criminals ‘resting’ between bigger jobs.

Dennis Altman God Save the Queen
the strange persistence of monarchies
An avowed republican investigates the unexpected durability
and potential benefits of constitutional monarchies.
When he was deposed in Egypt in 1952, King Farouk predicted
that there would be five monarchs left at the end of the century:
the kings of hearts, diamonds, clubs, spades, and of England. To
date, his prediction has proved wrong, and while the twentieth
century saw the collapse of monarchies across Europe, many
democratic societies have remained monarchies.
God Save the Queen is the first book to look at constitutional
monarchies globally, and is particularly relevant given the pro-
democracy movement in Thailand and recent scandals around the
British and Spanish royal families. Is monarchy merely a feudal
relic that should be abolished, or does the division between
ceremonial and actual power act as a brake on authoritarian
